Long Island Average Moving Cost Factors
One of the most significant factors that influences moving rates is distance. Further distances require more fuel, time, and resources, so they tend to be more expensive than local relocations. Learn how local and long-distance relocation costs break down.
Local Moving Cost
Local home relocations usually fall within 100 miles of your current home. Rates include labor, travel time, and truck usage but can also include the number of movers for large relocations, accessibility challenges, and stair fees. You’ll also pay more if you require specialty moving services such as storage, furniture assembly, or fragile-item crating.
Long Distance Moving Cost
Long distance relocations cost more due to weight and mileage fees. Since your items are traveling greater distances, they require more labor, tolls, permits, and sometimes overnight stays for moving personnel. They also require greater logistics and planning to ensure every step stays according to schedule.
